who would win

[IALuder]

ok, i got this kid im my government class talking all this shit about how he can beat me in a 2002 Spec v. he says his car do 14.8 but thats not him driving it.

in your opinion who would win in a race. 95 Si Prelude or 2002 Spec v?

state reasons why to.

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

your gonna need to list the mods and tranny type...

[ebpda9]

well some things contradict there: your vehicle box says 95 lude si and then you claim it's vtec. i know the si's had a h23-2.3l DOHC non vtec 160hp, and there are lude VTEC-2.2l VTEC 190hp, and ofcourse the mother of all the f22a4 2.2l SOHC nonvtec with an eye popping 135hp.

well if it's the vtec on it should bea closerace depending on the driver. i think the se-rs run have like 172hp and they are as heavy as a lude, but don't quote me on it

[MAXed Out]

I would say if they they are both bone stock that the lude might take it but not sure. I know a newer one will definetely do him.

[DMH-Performance]

If both cars are stock then the Spec V. I have a 94 Honda Prelude Si and it depends what you have done to the motor. A stock honda prelude and high altitudes runs about a 16.2 or more. A Spec V is faster. List the mods and i'll tell you if you can beat it.

the spec would win. why do i know...hmm....???

your looking at a 2700lb weight including around 150hp/160tq to the wheels stock. give or take a few here and there. 14.8 stock is def doable, cars are running low 14's with basic bolt ons. i ran a 14.9 with a sri.

[thewoahna]

going with the nissan

[GT40FIED]

I'm gonna say the Nissan if they've got comparible mods by about 1/2 a car.

[ChrisCantSkate]

ive never lost to one... imma say prelude, but they are very close from my experience

*edit* saw it was a prelude SI.... hmm... i might say the spec-v then, unless your a really good driver

[Racing Rice]

Im going with the safe answer.. Its a drivers race.;)

[IALuder]

^ true.

the spec v has a intake and my lude is stock.

[vtracer20]

i think the spec would have u off the line.....it's pretty much who's the better driver...the spec v is a torque monster....i've heard many good things about that car and it's quick

[Wren57]

as most races, will come down to driver skill... given equal drivers, the nissan should win

[Addict]

Spec V. The Si Lude would be tough to pull in front of it. Less HP. Less TQ. And more weight (~100lbs).

Doesn't the Spec-V has an LSD stock? Just curious.

[CD5Passion]

yeah I will agree with the rest those effers are quicker..specially since I raced a Lude SI and I was able to keep up in my whooping ~145 hp
course the kid couldn't shift worth a damn so mayeb that helped
